Chapter 138 made a fortune
"Wouldn't it? It's as simple as that? Carl was relieved when he heard this, and when he would make a decent bet, he couldn't think of such a request, isn't God also crazy, "What if your film can't win any awards?" ”
Li Yihua shrugged his shoulders and said, "You can do whatever you want?" If you scold me and beat me in front of me, I will never return the favor, or I will apologize to you like in the newspaper! ”
"That's not too cheap for you, if I win, you're going to shout three times in front of me and Pooh: I'm rubbish!" Carl took your look, squinting a small pair of eyes and smiling.
"Yes! But if I win, you have to shout three times in front of me: I'm a waste! That's fair! ”
Carl's face suddenly burst into laughter, but he felt that he was holding it, and he laughed and said, "Haha, okay, okay, I'll play with you, I'm going to watch you be trampled underfoot, how crazy you are!" Yellow-skinned monkey, only worthy of carrying my shoes, hahaha! ”
"Don't be too happy, it's not certain who will die of the deer!" Li Yihua looked at the media in the café and said loudly, "I am director Li Yihua, my movie is "Chainsaw", and now I have made a bet with Mr. Carl, I hope to be a special witness!" ”
Chao Wang Zhuxian made a look, and the lovers had a little understanding between them, and then said in English.
When I was a reporter and heard that such an interesting thing could become news, I immediately became excited, shouting, "yes! Instantly, there was a chorus of agreeing voices in the café.
Carl looked at the scene in front of him and was immediately excited, after this incident, his name will definitely appear in the world, which is really a happy thing.
"Carl, you have to remember that my name is Li Yihua, and the movie is "Chainsaw", don't forget it!" Li Yihua said coldly.
"I won't forget, you must know that the Venice Film Festival is just a Hong Kong film for you, how can you forget, I'm still waiting for you to shout: I'm a waste? mygood! I think of the scene where you shouted: I'm trash, and I believe it must have been a wonderful feeling. Carl scoffed.
Li Yihua ignored Carl, who was talking nonsense, motioned to Wang Zhuxian, and the two left the open-air café. It was really gentle that I went, unlike when I came gently, I waved softly and took away a bet
"Ah Hua, isn't it a bit risky to do this time, you must know that the awards at the Venice Film Festival are basically won by those white people, which is not good for us!" Wang Zhuxian pushed Li Yihua and said a little worriedly.
"You little naughty, when did you see me fighting a battle that I was not sure of? Rest assured, you're in control! Li Yihua smiled confidently.
"Then I'm curious, where did you get the confidence." Wang Zhuxian quipped.
"Do you know the purpose of the Venice Film Festival?" Turning his head to look at her, he asked with a smile in his eyes.
Wang Zhuxian was stunned for a moment, but still shook his head.
"The Venice Film Festival has developed its own unique tradition, focusing on film experimenters from all over the world, encouraging them to make films with innovative forms and unique techniques, even if there are some flaws, as long as they are innovative, they can be accepted by the festival. The purpose of the Venice Film Festival is 'Cinema at the Service of Serious Art', and I fully believe that Saw was filmed in a way that was ahead of its time, and there was no problem in winning the award. ”
"Yi Shao, you're back!"
Seeing that everyone was sitting in the living room waiting for them, Li Yihua looked at them curiously and said with a smile: "You are all here, even Brother Hui is here, you are chatting so happily, it seems that there must be something good?" ”
"Yi Shao, it's a good thing, the Venetian staff copied the film and sent it to the jury, and there is good news for you, our movie "Chainsaw" was used as the opening film." Liang Jiahui said with some excitement.
"Great!" If Li Yihua had no disability, I believe he would be so excited that he would jump up, he couldn't have imagined that his film would become the opening film, Lady Luck is too powerful.
Although Hong Kong is one of the world's largest film production bases, few of its films have been internationally recognized, and only a few films have been shortlisted for film festivals of some nationalities.
"Saw Horror" was selected as the opening film of the Venice Film Festival, which is a huge success in itself, regardless of whether it can win an award or not, the four words of this opening film alone can attract many mainstream media reporters and film agents.
This is the fame and money that represents it, Li Yihua's purpose in coming to this "Chainsaw" to participate in the film festival is first, he hopes to make some fame, and he also hopes that the film can sell at a good price and rush back to Asia.
"Ah Hua, don't we have a good chance of winning this bet?" Wang Zhuxian jumped up happily and shouted loudly.
"Little girl, you just know, you must know that your husband's ability is very great." Li Yihua scratched the tip of her nose and smiled.
"What husband? People haven't promised you to marry you yet, you're less stinky and beautiful! Wang Zhuxian was so ashamed of the word husband that she blushed and said coquettishly.
Liang Jiahui and the others were confused by this 'little couple' who were making trouble, and hurriedly stopped: "Okay, okay, you can tell what is going on, which makes everyone very curious." ”
"That's right, just now Ah Hua and I went to dinner, and we met two white people who insulted our film, and Ah Hua made a bet with them, saying that our film would definitely win an award. If they win, they will shout three times in front of us: I am a waste! Wang Zhuxian said with a smile what had just happened.
"Yi Shao, isn't this too risky?" Liang Jiahui asked worriedly.
"It was a bit impulsive at the time, but knowing that our film was the opening film, it was gone. Everyone knows that our Hong Kong films have always been in a weak position abroad, and this time I hope that our "Chainsaw" can get off to a good start, play our own brand, and open up foreign markets, not just in that small place in Asia, every day for that little box office to earn and die. ”
"Yi Shao, I know why you succeeded?" Liang Jiahui said with a smile.
"Why?"
"Because you have the audacity, think that others dare not think, and do things that others dare not do, such a person is either a fool or a genius. Yi Shao is not a fool, of course he is a genius! ”
Everyone was stunned when they heard it, and after thinking about it for a long time, it turned out that it was Liang Jiahui who teased Yi Shao tomorrow, and they all laughed happily!
